We loved the location - in a beautiful and charming little town on the bay. But Thomas (he did all the cooking) went far and above any expectation we've ever had for a "full breakfast"!! The dining room was elegant, the furnishings were eye-popping....but the spread on the table had everything anyone could ever want for a very full breakfast. Thomas asked us if we'd like eggs, pancakes, sausages, bacon, etc. in addition to what was already on the table. So, unbelieving, we asked for eggs and pancakes. We got to taste REAL Canadian 100% pure maple syrup - it was thick, dark, and had more flavor than any real maple syrup we've ever had in the USA.

My husband and I stayed for 2 nights, along with our little border terrier Chico. We had a fabulous time, and Tom and Michael are both lovely hosts, and really want each guest to have an amazing stay. The rooms are spacious, and have everything you need to enjoy a wonderful stay. We had the king suite, and it had a nice water view, lovely bathroom, and nice cold air conditioning too…..very welcome after a long day exploring the sights and sounds of beautiful Mahone Bay. The location is perfect, as you can walk to great restaurants and great little shops dotted along the main road. There is also a quaint sitting room that had a fridge that guests could use to keep beverages or food cold. We really enjoyed this feature. Breakfast is amazing….fresh fruit, juices, coffee, yogurt, pancakes, eggs, sausage, toast, and jams. We loved our stay here, and are already looking forward to staying there again, the next time we need to visit Mahone Bay.

The breakfast was available from 8am to 9:30am and the table was filled with so many options such as bowls of fresh fruit, smoked salmon, yougurt, cheese and cereal. Pancakes, eggs, bacon and sausage were available upon request. There was cereal on the side board as well as several juices, coffee or tea.

There wasn't much to dislike. The house was nicely decorated and the owners (Michael and Thomas) were friendly and helpful with suggestions for day trips or restaurants nearby. The property is located across the street from Mahone Bay and boasts a view of the water.

the host was excellent and couldn't do enough for us to make us comfortable. the breakfast was lovely, tasty and well prepared --fresh fruit, choice of bread (rye, whole grain etc), smoked salmon, cereal, eggs of choice etc). the host has owned and run the lovely Victorian home for the past 17 years as a B & B. The home and property are well maintained and he and his partner have a wonderful eye for colour, design etc. He has a large collection of antiques. We loved staying there and the small town of Mahone Bay is a delight.

My flight was delayed and I called to inform the owners. They were so understanding and did not seem put out at all. I arrived about 11 PM. I slept well and loved the room. Thomas provided a wonderful breakfast! My stay was additionally blessed because my suitcase was left in Montreal and I did not have anything warm to wear for a boat tour that I had scheduled. Thomas found something that was perfect and I truly appreciated his thoughtfulness!

nothing to not like

Breakfast was excellent with plenty of choices. We had great conversations with our host. Since we both enjoy history it was a great mix.

The step into the bathroom but we did get used to it since there was plenty of light.

Michael was an excellent host. Decor of the house is stunning and very antique. A very atmospheric house. Very central. A lovely breakfast spread was supplied on both the mornings we were there. We would highly recommend Mahomes day and staying at the Fairmont.

Tom, the host, was amazing. So gracious and helpful. The room was lovely and beds and bedding were perfect. Breakfast was wonderful as well with so much to choose from.

Only downside … and this has nothing to do with the owner … is that our room faced out to a busy street so there was a lot of street noise all night and esp early morning. I am a fairly light sleeper though so perhaps it wouldn’t be an issue for most people

Loved it!! Beautiful house and room, great location, right across the water. Extremely comfortable bed! The breakfast was incredible, they had absolutely everything and made eggs and bacon for me! The hosts were lovely and kind, couldn't ask for more!

Friendly hosts, good breakfast, clean and comfortable, quiet location.

Most restaurants in the town were closed for dinner. One pub / tapas bar was open and the food was excellent.
